Mosquitoes will eat you alive in the carpark if you don't spray, just ask Paddy (potty) King, one scary place. Well the surf was pretty average today. I left it to the young guys to get their quota instead. Official things kicked off, boats were checked and the boys were getting the tape measures out. The team march started at 5 pm and the bloody mozzies came at us again arrrgghhhh. Official speeches were had followed by drinks and dinner at a terrific venue at Jennettes Pier.

Team delegates had their meeting and went on into the evening and was good to air everything out on the first night. The team event will start tomorrow, conditions will be small but improving in the next few days. Can't wait for some surfing action.
